Prince William Avoids Middleton Family Game Nights

Prince William has reportedly made excuses to avoid participating in the Middleton family's competitive game nights, citing their intense atmosphere as overwhelming. Royal author Christopher Andersen described the Middleton family's approach to competition as surpassing even that of the royals, who are already known for their sporting spirit. William's avoidance stems from the heated nature of their games, which he finds too consuming, even though he and Kate often engage in competition during public events. James Middleton, Kate's brother, confirmed the family's love for games, noting that William frequently seeks ways to excuse himself from the table. Despite this, William does not shy away from competing against Kate outside of family gatherings. This dynamic reflects a blend of royal tradition and familial rivalry that characterizes William's interactions with the Middletons.
